I have not seen those older threads. I wasn't even aware its been beaten to death as you say. I'm rarely on this forum, and now I know why. With vitriolic attitude coming from members like you, I will gladly stay off this forum. Show some respect towards others will you?

Is it true most full synthetic oils are not really synthetic, but still basically advanced dyno oil? I see Amsoil advertises they are 100% synth. Its been suggested we are getting scammed on the full synthetic oils.

I'll try PUP for 2 oil changes to see how my car is. Engine only has 45k on it at the moment. If it runs worse, I will switch back to M1.

No. I don't believe any 3.7L came with direct injection. As far as I know anyway.

Being getting 1L jugs on sale is practically never, I will be picking up 2 5L jugs of the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum Synthetic. Over a dozen videos with test results rated it higher then the Mobil 1, which had lower scores. Even the additive pack is a lot less in the Mobil 1. Being the two brands...

I was told by a mechanic that its a good idea to rev the engine up high, just to give the VVT system a workout every now and then. It kicks in around 4 or 5 grand, so if you aren't using it very often, it could fail at some point from non use. I dont know how true this is, but it makes sense...

I dont mind changing my oil at all. I just dont want to spend $18 per litre of oil if I have to drain it out once a year at 8000K. That said I might give the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum a try. Its on sale for $30 at Canadian Tire this week for a 5L jug.

2014 Mustang 3.7L. I drive it hard at times, but casual more then not. I let it rev to 7 grand on occasion to keep the VVT system working. I drive the car all year round. Winters here probably go down to 0 or minus 10C. Most of my driving is stop and go.

A lot of video tests state the Mobil 1 Extended burns off a lot faster then their regular synthetic version does, and it barely meets some specs in the rating system. As per AMSoil, its their Signature Series oil with the 25K oil change interval. They want $18 per Litre for this stuff. I can...

I usually change my oil once a year, since I only usually put on 8000K per year. I have been using Mobil 1 regular synthetic (not the awful extended stuff) for about 25,000K now, with an oil change once per year at 8000k each time. I have been seeing reviews that Mobil 1 is not the best oil...

I noticed I had one spare Mobil 1 part 212 left. This was before they became the 212A. Do I still have one of the good Mobil 1 filters before they degraded a bit?

I usually put 6000 to 8000KM on my car per year. That's not a lot, but I still change the oil once a year. I don't usually go over a year. I want synthetic because of its cleaning properties and its ease of flowing in our winters here. Plus its just all around better oil. I work in an auto parts...

No clue. You probably know more then I do on that.

Filters are the Napa 47502, Baldwin B7449 and Fram XG 10575.

Not really concerned about price, but which one filters better.

I am looking for the best oil filter for my 2014 Mustang. I change the oil once every year and use Mobil 1 5/20 synthetic in it. I can get the Fram and Baldwin here from one store, or the Napa at another. First off should Baldwin even be on this list? I know the other two are recommended on...

<a href="http://www.envirosaveglobal.com/" target="_blank">http://www.envirosaveglobal.com/</a> Anyone ever use this stuff and does it really do anything at all for the mechanics of the car? Or is it all snake oil that doesn't really do anything at all, but cost money? I did use their Fuel...

I have a 2014 Mustang with the 3.7L Ecoboost V6. Does this engine have the same issues as the 3.5L? I assume the engine design is almost identical between the two. My car has 32,000km on it so far. It doesn't quite get the same highway mileage I got with it when I first had the car. Seems to...

So from what I gather, this is not a common problem then. I wonder how many other of this filter were sold 1 1/2 years ago that may have been from a bad batch? Funny there is no mention of it. Ok. Move on.
